The property is beautiful, the area and beach where it is located is amazing, however the rooms we had were small, quite tired looking, aged and the air-conditioning did not cool much, fortunately the weather was cool enough that sleeping with open windows was a better option. The night we arrived, we are at the hotel bar, unfortunatelly this was the worst meal we (5 people) had, not only during our trip but in general. The breakfast buffet was good and very convenient. If some remodeling takes place, this will be an amazing property, worth of their 5 star class.

The place is very unclean . The service is horrible, my pants were damaged because the seat in the restaurant was greasy.When I asked to clean my pants professionally they said it would take too many days. The manager asked me to give all my information and buy the new pants and send the receipt. I did it and call many times and they promise return money on my account, but they never did. The manager Marina Gonzalez is lier and whole management is scam. :-(

Excellent. Recommendation that you join their points group to get 10% discount on everything while there. Beautiful beach just below. 5 mins drive in to old Alvor which has great restaurants, if you're not taking the half board option. Breakfast (incl) is amazing, and they even ha e Bucks Fizz on offer every day!

We received 5 star service in a 4 star property. This hotel is in need of investment, the bedroom furnishings & decor are very tired. The gym was awful with the majority of the equipment broken and in need of a deep clean. The mattress was very worn and uncomfortable. I feel sorry for the staff as they go out of their way to give you excellent service. The location is beautiful too, ideal for lovely long walks along the boardwalk.

The views, location and staff service really make this hotel. Unfortunately we did not receive room upgrade with VIP status but the included wine was excellent. The daily breakfast buffet was very good and we enjoyed the selection of vegetables available with the salad offerings at the dinner buffet. The only reason I give this a 4 vs 5 stars is the matresses and furnishings really need an update. The mattress was very uncomfortable. And no matter how low we made the AC in the room it just never got really cool. With having a sea view room you do get to hear the ocean all night but I did find it hard to sleep with the mattress and room temperature. I would recommend this hotel for everything else though!
